Report here any forum problem (bad colour, error) and post your suggestions.

TODO:
1. Set group as default by Group Leaders - plugin, code, whatever. Need to find.
2. Portal page - history (the one from old homepage edited a bit in history.html/php), servers (clickable buttons which change server in servers.php), tools (nickname generator and maybe more), news ($announcements in news.php), downloads (...), more(?)
3. Member contact/activity list
4. Links in post color

DONE:
1. Made logo link to forum home.
2. Reported Posts http://board.twcclan.org/modcp.php?action=reports - find and change CSS background of the reports
3. Quote text to black in CSS
4. Change background in quote text to post background color (white looks bad with light colors)
5. Copy important threads

I have a suggestion: Lets make the default text color white? It's way more clearly.

Yeah, indeed white text would maybe be better?

And when you ''put link'' into a word (like in my sign)
that text should be red or something bright maybe?

Yes or marked with a line like this

I agree with white text, it's better and clearer like Ares said.

White is to bright and you can read the gray text, about the links: we made them lightgray already and if you hover they will be underlined.

maybe there is a plugin that only the text of members will be white as default?

I might set it brighter and change links to another color but since it's first time I edit theme I need to find how to change it just in post. There are two CSS classes that may be solution (.post_body and .post_content) but I won't test them unless I'm sure. If you want it brighter please help with searching here http://community.mybb.com/forum-10.html - I don't have time for it now (look for 'font color in posts').

I don't understand what you mean with that

some more suggestions:

http://mods.mybb.com/view/hm-my-country-flags <- The language will be shown on the forum.
http://mods.mybb.com/view/its-my-birthday <- If a member has his birthday, a pm will be sended to him from the clan with the text that you can choose.
http://mods.mybb.com/view/profile-comments <- Members/guests can leave a message/comment on the profile of the registered user.

If you wan't to quote someone, you need to click on the replay button, in fact it's a quote button. If you change that thing that I've posted, the replay button will be changed to "quote", like it was on the old forum.

Well, it's not a big problem, and when you move your mouse over the reply it says 'Quote this...' Anyways in this theme it can be changed just by image editing so if someone is interested then he can edit it to Quote and I'll change it later.
As for plugins, I will install the birthday message and profile comments, but the flags may lag the forum even more atm (it checks ip on every login and changes flag) so I won't try it unless old forum gets deleted.
